Dikomo (Greek: Δίκωμο; Turkish: Dikmen) is a town in Cyprus, located about halfway between Nicosia and Kyrenia. De facto, it is under the control of Northern Cyprus.
The town consists of two parts:
Kato Dikomo (Κάτω Δίκωμο; Aşağı Dikmen)
Pano Dikomo (Πάνω Δίκωμο; Yukarı Dikmen)
Dikomo is first mentioned in sources in a chronicle by Neophytos the Recluse on a raid on Cyprus in 1155/56. It was close to the site of a battle between the Byzantine forces and the forces of Raynald of Châtillon, who had landed in Kyrenia and further advanced to Nicosia.[2]
